The Best Music Classes and Programs For Kids In Perth

The Perth Mums Group Useful Lists are a quick reference to some of the most helpful, fun and important places in Perth. Our lists are continually updated and cover the best places for kids and parents across Perth.

Below are some of the best music classes and programs in Perth, with contributions and suggestions by Perth Mums group members. Obviously the list doesn't include all the great programs in Perth, but this is a great place to start. Remember to always do your own research and make sure the venue meets your personal needs.

Lessons are available for kids aged 18 months and over. Along with musical knowledge, kids also learn to socialise with their peers, develop their fine and gross motor skills, and enjoy sharing a love of music with their parents. The program aims to develop the fundamentals of music, such as rhythm, pitch and aural skills, and also teach some basic theory knowledge.

"Music together with Sarah! Amazing program, several locations around perth and great for all ages." - PMG Member

"I second this. I felt silly doing it at first because the program required a lot of parent's involvement. But my daughter's first songs/tunes were from that program. And she loved it. So I recommend this, especially for parents who are not musically inclined but want to be, for their kids." - PMG Member

"Yup agreed. Sarah is such a great teacher. Its a great program where you'll get the music books and CD to play at home or in the car and its great music where adults can enjoy it as well. Highly, highly recommend!" - PMG Member

"Yes! Just signed up my little girl for the next term. The program is lovely and the mixed age group is great too." - PMG Member
